Kids These Days

Okay the news up on the T.V. station
Talking about my generation
Tell me we ain't got no patience
Don't respect the law
We living
Permanent vacation
Clock is ticking
Times a wasting
Get a job and cash that paycheck
We looking like nah
'Cuz I ain't the one who ruined this shit
And I never ran no government
You mad 'cuz we wanna abandon ship
But y'all are the reason it's sinking quick
And I never crashed no housing market
The world keeps on melting, y'all didn't stop it
The oceans got trash
And the air is toxic
But y'all didn't care
That shit ain't your problem
Ay yo
Check my privilege
I don't bow to no one
That don't match my image
Daddy never loaned me millions
Government just want my check
Use that shit to pay the rich
I can't even pay my rent
Trump care is a death sentence
White House can just suck my dick
'Cuz I'm not the one to be fucking with
Ain't shit to lose on the 1%
Poverty made belligerent
Immigrants
Treated like second rate citizens
Get stopped and frisked if you darker than cinnamon
Get executed for flexing your melanin
Cop will get off though there's proof on the internet
CNN saying I ain't worth remembering

I'm not the one
I am not the one
I'm not the one
Look look look
I am not the one
I'm not the one
I'm not the one
I am not the one
I'm not the one
Look look look
I am not the one
I'm not the one

Okay look
We was born for greatness
Pop culture they imitate us
Speak our slang then try to shame us
I'm just like hold up
Keep the bathrooms segregated
If you gay you can't get treated
By the doctor, he's religious
That's called freedom y'all
If you're poor then that's your fault
Get a couple jobs so you won't be broke
And homeless
Don't forget to go college
Notice
It's not much for knowledge
Play the system you'll be balling
Only 20k in
Debt
See most of us we are inept
And still, we think that we can help
But god forbid We get involved
'Cuz if we ever try to solve
Y'all get upset and tell us off
Like no no no
I do not want no safe space
No, I do not want you to be safe
You are just being a snowflake
Don't disagree with me lil boy
So if I run a high fever
Or if my family not eating
Y'all will not help me with neither
You getting yours
And I get mines
But if the banks they start failing
The people who've had it smooth sailing
They get the cure to what ails them
Don't even get hit with a fine
Alright

I'm not the one
I am not the one
I'm not the one
Look look look
I am not the one
I'm not the one
I'm not the one
I am not the one
I'm not the one
Look look look
I am not the one
I'm not the one
